Keoladeo National Park is not visited by many people during the monsoon months. The purpose of my visit was to observe and photograph the rookery of herons and other birds such as spoonbills, storks, and cormorants. This is when herons and other birds breed on small islands in lakes or ponds within the national park. Other than this, there is a plethora of wildlife and wildlife activity around the park. For those who are really interested in wildlife photography, they should probably visit this place during the monsoon months. However, one must be aware that it would be extremely hot. I hope you enjoy the photos.

Winter Birding at Keoladeo National Park – March 2025
After Chambal, I had spent an additional two days exploring Keoladeo National Park. This was late in the season as most of the migratory birds had left. However, the best time to visit the park for maximum sighting of migratory birds is from the second week of January till the third week of February. Each day I would head out in the morning and return back to my guesthouse just after dusk.
Keoladeo National Park Experience
I had visited Keoladeo National Park in Bharatpur last December of 2017. It is not very far from Noida, a 4 hours drive. However it took me over 6 hours to reach the guesthouse where I had arranged to stay due to some traffic congestion. I arrived just after 10pm where the owner was nice enough to provide dinner after settling in my room. I had stayed at Kiran Guest House for the next 4 nights.
